Thesis title:
My research focuses on the presence of fine art objects in Swedish domestic settings around 1900, and investigates the role assigned to this type of visual art by means of considering contemporary discourses on the home, nationhood, and cultural reform.

My research interests are mainly in Swedish and Scandinavian visual art of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, as well as related histories of architecture and design.
Other interests include:
